Part 2 of Joe Stopulos's Uncommon Good interview with Dr. Bud Maher picks up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where Joe is studying at Marquette University — attending daily Mass during Lent (sometimes before the bar closed), seeking out every Jesuit professor he could find, and slowly beginning to ask why the Church teaches what it teaches. Highlights include: College Faith in the Real World: Joe reflects on attending a 10 p.m. Sunday Mass while most of his friend group wasn't practicing. He describes going to daily Mass every day of Lent in college — including a legendary St. Patrick's Day that started at 5:50 a.m. outside a bar and still included 6:30 a.m. Mass. A perfect encapsulation of where he was spiritually. Meeting His First Protestant at 25: A friendship with a Methodist minister friend forced Joe to actually articulate why Catholics do what they do — confession, the sacraments, all of it. He couldn't answer from Scripture. That sent him to CatholicAnswers.com, and every answer he found only deepened his conviction. Father John Ricardo Changes Everything: Introduced to Iowa Catholic Radio through friend John Leonetti (whom Joe famously told "nobody listens to Catholic radio"), Joe started tuning in to Father Ricardo at 11 a.m. and never stopped. He began burning CDs of Ricardo's talks to hand out. Combined with Jeff Cavins' Bible Timeline study and Scott Hahn's The Lamb's Supper, this launched a roughly 24-month transformation that Joe describes as the turning point of his adult faith. The Origin of Man Up: Joe shares how his early on-air appearances during Iowa Catholic Radio fundraisers eventually led to a standing show — made possible, he says, by the theological confidence and credibility of his original co-host, Father Zach. Now approaching 10 years and 400+ episodes, Man Up remains one of the network's cornerstone programs. Life at the Basilica of Saint John: Joe talks about the thriving parish community at Saint John's Basilica in Des Moines, the pastoral transition from the beloved Father Quinn to Father Trevor Sequin, and why surrounding yourself with friends striving for virtue is one of the three most important decisions a man can make. Saint Thomas Classical Academy: Joe highlights this homeschool hybrid co-op as one of the great gifts of his family's life in Des Moines. A major event is coming up — Bishop Conley will be the keynote speaker on October 20th, focusing on his devotion to Saint John Henry Newman. Don't miss it. Hope for the Future of the Church: Joe closes with optimism — men are returning to the Church, communities are growing, and the Forge Conference is proof. As Joe puts it: if Joe Rogan's going to church, a lot of people are going to church. Next week on Man Up: Joe re-airs a two-part interview he recorded with his father during the Heroic Fatherhood series — a tribute to the man he calls the greatest of his life.

In one of the most personal episodes of Man Up to date, host Joe Stopulos opens by sharing that his father — the self-described hero of his life — recently passed away after a swift battle with cancer. The interview featured in this episode was recorded on February 6th, the very morning Joe's family received word of his father's diagnosis, making its content — a deep dive into Joe's Catholic upbringing — all the more poignant and powerful. Highlights include: A Cradle Catholic Story: Joe, the fourth of six children, grew up in a large Catholic family in Davenport, Iowa, attending Catholic grade school, high school, and college (Marquette University). He reflects on what it meant to be the "big family" at school and how normalcy around the faith was established early. The Role of the Father: Joe makes a compelling case — backed by statistics — that as the father goes, so goes the family. He shares how watching his dad pray silently at Communion left a lasting impression, and how his father's consistent Mass attendance (never missed a single one) shaped all six Stopulos children, all of whom remain in the faith today. "Peasant Catholicism" and Why It Works: Joe and Dr. Maher discuss the value of consistent, humble faith practice — showing up to Mass, praying before meals, living a Christian life — even without formal Bible study or theological depth. It worked for two thousand years, and Joe's family is living proof. A Gift of Faith: Joe shares that he never seriously doubted his faith, even through adolescence and college. His one missed Mass in eighth grade is still something he remembers. He considered priesthood briefly in grade school but ultimately felt called to marriage — and the story of how he met his wife Kristen (thanks to a last-minute band class and AOL Instant Messenger) is both funny and providential. Looking Ahead: Joe closes by noting this is Part 1 of 2. Upcoming weeks on Man Up will include Part 2 of the Uncommon Good interview, re-aired episodes featuring Joe's father, and eventually Joe's own personal reflection on what his dad meant to him. He also notes the recent passing of Father Aquinas, adding to a season of deep personal loss. This episode is for any man who wants to be a better father, who wonders if showing up is enough, or who is still processing what his own father meant to him.

David - I founded the non-profit organization "When the Saints" in November 2011. My passion is to see an end to sexual exploitation, and to invite Christ's bride into the role we can all play. More than that, my desire is to bring glory to the name of Jesus. Although I'm in his late 30's, I have extensive "hands on" experience and have been advocating for poverty and justice issues for two decades. In the fall of 2011 I graduated from St. Louis Christian College with a Christian Ministries degree emphasizing Intercultural and Urban Missions. I love traveling and watching documentaries or movies with a strong lead actress.Essy - Hi there! I'm your friendly Operations Manager here at WtS.

I make sure everything is running smoothly so they can do their best work. David and I have been married since 2017 and we have two awesome kids, Taji and Nuru, who keep life exciting (and slightly chaotic). I'm the third of four kids in my family, which means I've got a lot of practice helping things run smoothly.Originally from Kenya, my heart is still there with my parents and siblings, though I now call Malawi home. I'm a statistician by education, so numbers are my thing!

It's officially Season 10 of PSA: The Mental Health Podcast — and Izzy Baker returns with a powerful solo episode focused on masculinity, emotional intelligence, men's mental health, accountability, vulnerability, and the psychological impact behind one phrase many men have heard their entire lives: “man up.”After nearly eight years of podcasting, content creation, storytelling, difficult conversations, and building a platform centered around healing, growth, and real conversations for men, Izzy reflects on the evolution of PSA: The Mental Health Podcast, the upcoming expansion of Office Hours with Izzy Baker, and why this season feels different spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and creatively. Inspired in part by Kanye West's Graduation era, Season 10 represents growth, identity, purpose, emotional maturity, and fully stepping into who you were called to become without waiting for outside validation. The core conversation of this episode centers around the phrase “man up” and how it continues shaping men psychologically, emotionally, spiritually, and culturally. Izzy reacts to multiple viral conversations surrounding masculinity, emotional suppression, vulnerability, discipline, toxic masculinity, accountability, relationships, depression, emotional burnout, and the pressure many men silently carry every single day. Throughout the episode, difficult but necessary questions are asked: What does “being a man” actually mean? Who taught men what masculinity was supposed to look like? And why are so many men conditioned to suppress emotions instead of processing them in healthy ways?The episode explores how phrases like “man up” can sometimes motivate discipline and accountability while simultaneously reinforcing emotional suppression, shame, hyper-independence, pride, and silence. Izzy discusses the psychological effects of bottling emotions up, the rise in depression and suicide rates among men, therapy avoidance, financial pressure, entrepreneurial stress, emotional isolation, and how generations of men were conditioned to believe vulnerability automatically equals weakness. The conversation also breaks down the difference between emotional discipline and emotional repression, why unresolved emotions eventually surface physically, mentally, spiritually, or relationally, and how many men are silently crashing out while still appearing “strong” to everybody around them.Using conversations inspired by Psychology Today, mental health studies surrounding masculinity and emotional suppression, biblical principles surrounding courage and leadership, and real-life cultural examples, Izzy challenges listeners to rethink what true strength actually looks like. The episode touches on relationships, emotional expectations placed on men, the pressure to always “figure it out,” therapy for men, biblical masculinity, emotional intelligence, resilience, accountability, leadership, and why healing requires honesty before anything else can truly change.This episode is for the man who feels pressure to always stay strong, struggles expressing emotions without feeling weak, has ever been told to “man up,” is navigating depression, leadership pressure, financial stress, emotional burnout, or isolation silently, and wants accountability without becoming emotionally numb in the process. Because sometimes the strongest thing a man can do is finally admit he's human. Listen. Reflect.  And ask yourself: Did “man up” actually make men stronger…or did it simply make men quieter?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/p-s-a-the-mental-health-podcast--5520511/support.TrustBuilder Package

Hello and welcome back to the Trudge Report Podcast. Thank you for your listenership and support of the show. This week the four of us are back in action as we go around the horn. Greg is sweating out a game 7 for the Cavs in the 1st round of the NBA playoffs while Corey is very pleased with his Philadelphia Flyers series victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 1st round of the Stanley Cup Finals. Dan has a very hot take and quick rant about soccer being the inferior youth sport (listeners make sure you let us know what you think in the comment section). Shawn tells a cool story of a kids t-ball team party at an ex major league baseball player's home.The main topic in this episode surrounds the subject of what it actually means to be a man. Who taught us? What we were taught and what we got wrong. The lessons we learned growing up and especially once we got sober and evolved in this phase of our lives. We discuss how we feel we are perceived by others, mainly our families and friends. The role of being a provider versus a nurturer and the balance therein. We closed the show with what we would tell our former younger selves, the best piece of guidance we could give and what to watch out for. The great thing about this journey is that no one can take it for us or spare us of it."The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively." — Bob MarleyDon't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

Cory Hinton is the founder of Disciplined Apparel, a faith-and-fitness brand built to encourage believers to live with purpose, discipline, and boldness in their walk with Christ. What started in 2017 as a vision to create authentic, Christ-centered apparel has grown into a thriving brand generating over $20,000 a month in revenue, all while Cory continues serving full-time as a Communications Director at a church.Cory's story is rooted in transformation. At 18 years old, he was a skinny 120-pound kid who had never read the Bible. Through discipline, consistency, and a growing relationship with Christ, he transformed not only physically but spiritually. By his mid-twenties, he had developed a strong standard of fitness, read through the Bible multiple times, and built habits that continue to shape his life today as a husband, father of two, and entrepreneur in his mid-thirties.For Cory, discipline means defining your priorities and eliminating distractions until the work is done. His journey has required learning e-commerce, social media marketing, leadership, and time management while balancing ministry, business, marriage, and family life.In this episode, we talk about faith, fitness, business, discipline, consistency, and what it looks like to pursue excellence without compromising your walk with God.
